Let Amanda's age = x.
Gregory's age = x + 5.

Since Gregory is 17 years old.
17 = x + 5
x = 17 - 5
x = 12

Amanda is 12 years old.

Find two integers whose sum is -20 and product is 99
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the integers be x and y

x+y=-20

y=-20-x

xy=99

x(-20-x)=99

-20x-x²=99

x²+20x+99=0

x²+11x+9x+99=0

x(x+11)+9(x+11)=0

(x+11)(x+9)=0

x=-11,-9

when x=-11

-11+y=-20

y=-20=11=-9

when x=-9

-9+y=-20

y=-20+9=-11

so integers  are -11,-9

How to solve<br> -22-x=5+6x+9
nadya68 [22]
  -22 - x = 5 + 6x + 9   Combine like terms (5 and 9)
  -22 - x = 14 + 6x        Subtract 6x from both sides
-22 - 7x = 14                Add 22 to both sides
        -7x = 36               Divide both sides by -7
           x = 5\frac{1}{7}
